HIMALAYA BERRY—Very successful as a Southern berry and many 
claim Himalaya to be very productive in the more Northern States- 
Fruit black, few seeds, and of finest quality. Prune back each winter. 
For best result, these berries should have a trellis or fence to trail over.

habits of growth, dwarf-like; fruit medium size and good quality 
Adapted only for Southern climates unless protected in winter. 
ICEBERG BLACKBERRY—Pure white one of Luther Burbank’s great- 
est creations. It bears loads of delicious, snowy berries, which are 
not only white, but so transparent that the seeds, which are unusually 
small, may be seen in the ripe berries. Clusters larger than those ot 
Lawton; berries at least as large, earlier, sweeter and more tender and 
melting thruout, though as, firm as Lawton is when ripe. No garden 
complete without this grand White Blackberry, It is a most deliciously 
sweet and prolific sort, and succeeds everywhere. 50 cents each; 6 
for $2.50; $4.00 per dozen. 
AUSTIN IMPROVED DEWBERRY—This is perhaps the largest dew- 
berry in existence. Much larger than our larger wild dewberry, and 
bloams late. Must be fully ripe before it is at its best. Ripens several 
wec'<s later than our native berry,

any other blackberry in cultivation. It is a rapid grower, trailing on 
the ground or upon trellises like grape vines, and under favorable con- 
diti-s will grow twenty feet in a season. Canes are large and strong; 
folie large, healthy, thick and of a d2ep green color, Almost ever- 
grecn. Enormously productive and exceedingly early, ripening three 
wecks before other varieties. Fruit enormous in size, specimens often 
rea‘ hing 3 inches in lengtn. Seeds small and soft, Core small, very 
soft and platable. In size and extra fine flavor surpassing all other 
varieties. One of the finest fruit novelties of recent years. It is unlike

DIRECTIONS FOR PLANTING 
CAPE GF THE YCUNG TREES AND PLANTS BEFORE PLANTING— 
And Care of Trees and Plants when first Received trom ihe Nursery: 
Immediately after receiving the trees or plants from the nursery, they 
sbould be thoroughly moistened and wrapped or covered 10 prevent 
drying out. Bring them home at once and nes! in without delay. The 
trench should be dug at least 15 or 18 inches deep. | oosen the lower 
band of the bundle, wet the trees thoroughly and place them in a 
trench. Cover the roots and press the ground down firmly atound 
them. Trees which are to remain in trenches for more t!ian a week or 
ten days should be frequently watered and sai! should be carefully 
placed around the roots to exclude all the air, and ithe trees well 
banked for protection. For heeling-in over winter, select a place where 
water will not stand, away from buildings and meadows out in the 
open field, where mice will not injure them. 
THE SOlL:—-Any good aarden soil is suitable, Avoid excess of sand 
or gravel, provide a liberal depth of loam mixed with manure, but the 
roots should be allowed to come in contact with the fertilizer used. 
PLANTING:—Dig holes large enough to accommodate roots without 
crowding, and set trees or plant the same depth they were standing in 
the nursery. (This is usually shown by soil marks on trunk or stem or 
plant. however the surest way to judge is by surface roots on tree or 
plants) Good loam should be worked in among the roots and care- 
fully compacted. !n case of evergreen trees or other plants received 
with compact ball of earth on roots, the roots should not be unneces- 
sarily distrubed or balls broken. 
WATERING:—After planting it is well to apply sufficient amount o% 
water to penetrate the soil to a depth of 1 to 2 feet, and it is well to 
remember. that one heavy application of water is more beneficial than 
frequent light applications. Frequent cultivation of the surface soil 
reduces loss of moisture by evaporation. We advise the spading around 
each tree or plant frequently for a depth of from 1 to 1% feet deen, 
spading 2 to 3 feet each way around tree, and in protracted drough 
water frequently, have ground well drained. 
PRUNING:—The heads of all fruit trees should be shortened in 
severely and all limbs cut back within one or two buds of the trunk, 
this also applies to Pecan and other Nut Trees. Roses should at once 
after planting to be cut to within 4 or 5 inches of the ground. Fromm 
decidious trees and shrubs one-third to one-half of the growth of the 
previous summer should be removed. Trim all switch or side roots of 
all trees or plants within 3 inches of the tap root. 
The first cost of a tree or plant is but a trifle, and no planter, to 
save a few cents on the start, can afford to give his land and his time 
to an orchard or garden and in a few years to find that he has oniv 
worthless stuff. Inferior stock is usually sold at a so-cailed ‘‘cheap” 
price, but it is dear at any price. Bitter disappointment is a large part 
of the cost.
